Abstract: Objective To analyze the effect of suspension technique combined with acupuncture on gross motor function and activities of daily living (ADL) in children with spastic cerebral palsy,and to provide theoretical basis for clinical application. Methods A total of 84 children with spastic cerebral palsy were enrolled in this study from 476 children admitted to Anhui Children′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019.The random number method was used to divide the participants into control group(n=28), acupuncture group(n=28) and experimental group(n=28).The control group was given routine rehabilitation training, the acupuncture group received acupuncture treatment additionally, and the experimental group was given suspension technique treatment based on the acupuncture group.Before and after treatment, the gross motor function of the children was evaluated in C, D and E domains of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) scale, the cerebral palsy children′s Activities of Daily Living (ADL) scale was used to assess children′s ADL. Results The indicators of each group after treatment were better than those before treatment among three groups(P＜0.05).The GMFM-C, GMFM-D, GMFM-E, ADL scores among the three groups were different after treatment(H=14.044, 16.874, 13.246, 14.590, P＜0.05), and the scores of experimental group were better than those of the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Suspension technique combined with acupuncture can further promote the improvement of gross motor function and activities of daily living in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
